Financial fraud of elderly villagers in Leavensport, an urban sprawl threat to the community, disastrous dates, cross-sell marketing gone wrong, and another murder? Jolie Tucker is ready to try dating again. Well, she has no choice—since her family auctioned her off to the highest bidder. Her best friend, Ava, has agreed to a double date, but both friends find out hidden secrets about their partners as well as deception by one of the village's own, who will soon be found dead. This plot is sure to be spicy!
Okay now, why would anyone hurt the editor?
Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread Murder by Jodi Rath is a great story that is a continuation of the last two books. When we enter this installment, it’s summertime and Jolie dealing with another murder and everything else.
Jolie Tucker
Jolie is our sleuth and the co-owner of The Cast Iron Creations. She is trying to get past her issues while dealing with a new murder in town. Jolie is trying to do better her despite what everyone thinks. She has a lot of problems, and it isn’t helping with all the murders in town.
I like that Jolie is trying to help solve the murders, but despite what has happened to her. She is lucky that she has her friends and family there. Jolie has done an excellent job figuring out the mystery. I love how she does her murder board as hers is a lot different than what we see from other sleuths murder boards.
Things to look for (and that I liked)
- I still love the coziness of living in a small town.
- Everyone is still concerned about Jolie and the terrible trouble she gets into.
- The new relationship between Jolie and Mick is endearing.
- Jolie realizes she still has issues to work through.
5 Stars for Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread Murder by Jodi Roth
My rating for Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread Murder by Jodi Rath is five stars. I still like everything about what Ms. Rath’s have done with this book. This book is excellent. I couldn’t figure out who did it, but I can’t wait for the next book to come out. Don’t forget to take a look at the recipes in the back of the book.
The recipes are Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread, Dutch Cast Iron Pork Loin, and Cast Iron Chicken Marsala.
I highly recommend this book to all Cozy readers.
